In this condition, when a CD is played back, the key

When the Key control function is on, only the playback
speed changes when you use the Pitch control func-
tion, and the key of playback will remain fixed. (The
key of playback will be fixed to the level set by

When the unit is writing data to a disc, the Key control
function does not work. However, the Key control
menu can be operated.
When using the key control function, the volume of
the playback sound may occasionally sound like it is
vibrating. This is a result of the key control algorithm
working on the CD playback sound and is normal.
